Absolutely wonderful experience and the alterations that they did for me were perfect! I would highly, highly recommend Sew Beautiful to anyone looking for a top-notch tailor. I will never go anywhere else again. -Carter W. read more

Very high quality work. Sew beautiful did some complex alterations of two pairs of jeans and a skort for me. Fair price and above all - amazing service! read more

Lovely work and super fast-I needed a dress hemmed urgently and they worked with me to make sure it got done! Very kind and friendly, convenient hours and location. read more

Let me clear this up, there has been a few reviews that are mistaking this location for another location down the street which is Sewing Specialties. Sew Beautiful Alternations is a nice Korean lady who I have been going for about 2-3 years now. She has always done a great job at hemming my pants and is willing to walk through it with me on why she prefers it a certain way while still taking my thoughts into consideration. I prefer someone who is willing to value my thoughts and also willing to not just do what the customer wants when it may not turn out well. English isn't her first language but she's always done great at explaining the process with me. Turnaround time is usually pretty quick, but I recommend not rushing her and let her do her thing since she's the professional. Definitely come with resources that you may need for her to get the exact measurements on how you will wear your items such as bringing the correct shoes, belt to hold up the pants, etc. Again, please do not confused this location with Sewing Specialties. They're both great locations, but I definitely feel more connected with Sew Beautiful Alternations. If you are looking for a place to get some clothes alternates, I highly recommend coming to this nice Korean Aunty at Sew Beautiful Alternations. read more

I am working on a dress for prom today that was hemmed here and it's the worst job I have ever seen in my life. No layer of any hem was straight and they charged her $400 to destroy her dress. The owner of this company should not be taking work that they are not qualified to do. Shame on you They even removed the horse hair that she wanted on her dress and that threw it away, very poor business practice. Do not visit this shop read more

I had my wedding dress altered here. It was not a great job. The hem at the bottom is uneven. She wouldn't touch the top. A friend of mine and I took in the top of my dress with darting to make it more form fitting. I think she didn't feel the need to make the dress more form fitting because I am curvy. My friend did an amazing job making sure his dress looks better after I spent $225 for crooked hem job on the layers at the bottom. But I didn't know any better. She is friendly. I'll give her that. read more

Sew Beautiful Alterations - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Auburn, Washington

I bought a blouse on line and when I got it, it was like three sizes too big. I asked the owner of the store if she would be able to alter it to my size. I told her I was in no hurry so to take her time as to when she could get around to it as she is very busy with doing wedding dresses this time of year. She had it done in two days. She is so kind and very good at her job. I recommend her to anyone that need any alterations done. I am very satisfied with her work. read more

The owner is one of the sweetest women I've ever met! My daughter made the almost worst mistake ever by purchasing her prom dress online... it needed tons of work and on not soo great material. Because of Sew Beautiful she was able to wear the dress and learned a lesson she's never gonna forget- " do not buy special occasion dresses from cheap online stores!" Forever grateful for Sew Beautiful Alterations :) read more

Called the shop to see if I could have a swim suit adjusted on the bottoms - prefaced my request with letting her know the party was tomorrow and was immediately interrupted with, "you said tomorrow, I cannot do." She greeted a customer after that and hung up the phone, asking me to let her go. I called back to ask if I could finish my sentence, and she then told me she did not have time to look at it. I completely understand being booked out but customer service definitely needs work. read more

The lady who works there is so friendly. She explains everything in detail about what she is doing and why. The pricing is more on the expensive side, but she tells you exactly what she is charging you for. It is also quality work! You pay for what you get! I had a bridesmaid dress and my wedding dress altered. I told her what days I needed it by, and thankfully I got my dresses months in advance which gave her plenty of time to work with. She gave me a date for when the dresses will be ready by. When I got there, the dresses were ready and she had me try them on to make sure everything fit correctly. Highly recommend this place! read more

This is not a place for a casual hemming because the prices are too high. She is an experienced tailor and the prices reflect that.

I cannot speak highly enough of the owner of this shop. She does top notch work and isn't always appreciated by her customers, unfortunately. She's a one woman show and highly recommend her sewing skills. She can alter wedding dressing as well as hem a pair of pants. She once made pockets for a pair of shorts and did a totally professional job. You can't go wrong. read more

MUY EXCELLENTE! I will DEFinitely be returning! I moved to Auburn recently and needed to find a new tailor bc ... new jeans NEVER fit right, sooOooOooOooooo I looked to good ole Google for some insight on my options. It was between two close options, of which first tries are always risky, so I just picked the one with the most good reviews and hoped and prayed my jeans would come out at least wearable. Hours are not extended so since I work several cities away it was kind of difficult to pick up so I took another risk and sent my husband to pick up, which went smoothly. I came home, tried them on and to my pleasant surprise, they both fit SO perfectly! I couldn't have WISHED jeans magically appeared in a better fit! I was even more surprised bc the prices were fair! From my experience, it can be hard to find really good tailors that also charge fairly. I will most defffffFFFFFFinitely be returning. read more

I saw all of the amazing reviews for jeans alterations and I have taken a dress here before so I decided to bring my jeans in to have the waist hemmed. She did a horrible job. She only took the fabric in on only one side so the pockets are now uneven- and they are white jeans so it is very noticeable. There is also a bubble that appeared in the seam that she sewed making them look ridiculous and the seam that she sewed is not even straight. Would NOT recommended for pants alterations. read more

I believe this was my first time having something tailored so price wise, I didn't know what to expect. $70 to have this gown taken in at the waist line. It came out beautifully. The owner doesn't offer much small talk so expect to be in and out. The turn around time was 3 days to have this gown ready. I was able to try it on to make sure it fit to my liking once she made alterations. I'd go again if it was a last minute need but I think it was a bit spendy to say the gown wasn't steemed and was really wrinkled up. read more

She does excellent work in alterations and is very nice. Worth the price and I am very happy with the results. Strongly recommend!

The stars on my prior review were incorrect and YELP did not respond to my request for an edit so I am entering this rating.

Ms. Kim did a wonderful job tailoring my dress I needed for a wedding! She gives her honest opinion regarding adjustments and costs of tailoring, which I appreciate. I will be taking all my tailoring needs to her store. read more

I was home for a quick break while in training and needed two pairs of pants hemmed ASAP. She was able to get them done for me on the same day. The work looks very well done for a nominal price! read more

I've been to this business on a few occasions. I always get my Bjj gi's fixed and patched up here. Recently I bought a snowboarding jacket online and it had a damaged zipper. This place took care of me and ordered and new one and the jacket is brand new again. I'm glad I called about the zipper because I didn't know you can fix shit like that. They also did some hemming for some curtains for wife. read more

If you need anything altered, ESPECIALLY formal attire, go here! I went to another small business first for my wedding dress. My wedding dress is form-fitting and it is meant to show my curves. The last person I went to made a few mistakes and didn't take in the dress as much as I really wanted, also the bust was coming off my chest (it looked really awkward) so I decided to come to Sew Beautiful for a second opinion. I wish I came here first!! The owner of Sew Beautiful is so kind and patient, and most importantly, she knows what she is doing!!! She fixed my dress for me, and now it fits like a glove and it gives me Kim K curves. I couldn't be happier. I even brought her another mini dress of mine to alter too and she was so helpful. Long story short, the owner of Sew Beautiful is my new best friend!! Lol. I am soooo happy. Go here if you want your wedding dress done right the first time. P.S. I included a photo of my dress here in the review. I feel SEW BEAUTIFUL in it ;) just for referenfe my lining is a little bunched up in the photo, it looks great! Sew happy! read more

Sew Beautiful Alterations - My wedding dress - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Auburn, Washington

We decided to go to a different shop when we were told the alterations, which were basic, could not be made. This wasn't met with a professional attitude by the owner. The Wedding Bell was able to all and more than we wanted for a better price read more

I have been going to Sew beautiful since I was in 8th grade. She never disappoints and always takes care of me. From customizing dresses to simple hem alterations she is the best. My prom dress she hemmed, removed the zipper and created a corset lace up back, and add padding for a built in bra. She is absolutely amazing. Always make the drive no matter where I've lived to have her take care of all my alterations read more

This is probably one of the fastest services that I had received but it was not well done ... I had to ask person to re-do it 3 times and they did it but with an attitude. I'll definitely look for another person to fix my clothes. read more

Great work however make sure you keep your receipt if you prepay. When I returned to pick up the piece she told me I did not pay for the service. I had to pull the receipt out of my wallet to prove to her that I had paid in advance for the $60.00 charge. When I proved to her that I had paid in advance she made it appear that it was my fault and not her poor record keeping procedure. If I use her again I will not prepay!!! read more

Called before I went there, it is about a 35 min. drive. Wanted to confirm the price before I went. When I got there there were 2 people outside waiting, the sign on the door said "Will return soon". Since I drove such a distance and I figured they were at lunch (it was about 1 pm) I decided to wait. That was a mistake, I waited about 45 minutes and they never showed. What a way to run a business! read more

I came in to have my wedding dress altered and they did a great job! I had the straps shortened, the hem taken up, and the bodice taken in. I am a fairly accomplished sewer and the bodice work was no small task (nearly 3 inches). My dress was done in less than a week and at a completely reasonable price (I honestly would have paid double). read more

Absolutyly awesome alteration shop. The owner is ALWAYS so happy and has great prices. The speed of the service is the best!!! THANKS!!!!! read more

I accidentally ordered the wrong size dress for my senior homecoming in October, and was SO disappointed. So I took my dress here, two days before homecoming. I was so afraid they wouldn't have in done in time, but I was so wrong! they had it re-fitted a full 24 hours before the big dance, and for a meager $40 dollars! A great job, for a great cost! (P.S, Homecoming was great and I got lots of compliments on the dress! read more

Just what I was looking for, a honest, reasonably priced, and quality work seamstress. She fixed and tailored my shirts and dresses just in time for the summer. read more
